Continuity of Luna’s main plans

Luna Standard and Luna Premium are not affected by third-party restrictions. Membros Prime continue to redeem monthly games and broadcast the included catalog at no extra cost. Amazon remains committed to regular game updates, such as those released for April 2026, which include family and party titles.

These updates reinforce the service’s positioning as an accessible option for family and group games. GameNight, for example, allows multiplayer sessions using smartphones as controls, expanding compatibility with everyday devices.

Amazon Luna continues to operate with the aim of offering cloud gaming experiences in an integrated manner with the Prime ecosystem. The changes announced today focus the service on content managed directly by the company, reducing dependence on external channels.
